Happy, Um, Anniversary, President Bush

April 26, 2007 RSS Feed Print

War critics are holding an anniversary party of sorts for President Bush: Americans United tomorrow begins airing an ad nationwide that draws attention to the president's Mission Accomplished speech four years ago.

The group ties the ill-conceived event on an aircraft carrier to the current battle over war funding and Bush's pledge to veto it because it seeks to bring the troops home. This ad is a big deal: It will cost well over $100,000 to air Sunday on Meet the Press and starting Friday on daytime CNN and Fox programming and later on in prime time on MSNBC's Hardball, CNN's Anderson Cooper, and Fox's O'Reilly Factor.
